Britney Spears “Glee” Episode Slammed by the Parents TV Council

Friday, October 15th 2010 | Leave a Comment

Britney Spears recently portrayed herself on an episode of “Glee.” And now the Pop singer’s appearance on the hit Fox comedy series is being heavily scrutinized by a group of parents called the “Parents Television Council.”

In the episode, the McKinley High Glee club singers hallucinate about the pop star (who plays herself) while under anesthesia by a dentist played by John Stamos (Uncle Jesse from “Full House”).

And even though Britney’s episode earned a record number of viewers when it aired last month, the Parents TV Council calls it the “worst show of the week” while blasting Fox for showing off “explicit sexual content” and “skimpy outfits” on the show. Check out their official statement below:

“‘Glee’ earned its highest ratings ever with this Britney Spears tribute, drawing 13.3 million viewers. A scary thought considering that the mostly young teen/tween audience basically witnessed an endorsement of narcotics abuse, public masturbation and school-sanctioned burlesque.”

Aww, lighten up PTC!! Little girls shouldn’t look up to Britney Spears anyway….everyone knows that!!

    Oh come on then don’t watch it or have your kids watch it. People are just jealous how money is made and how well that show is doing.

    Come on, really. I guess that makes shows like the simpsons, American Dad, all the CSI shows, reality TV, the military channel horribe due to the “graphic content”. Give me a break, if it is that bad watch cartoon network, wait, there is violence there. How about having your kids read a book that is poitically correct.

    Wow just shut up!! Really?

    Yikes — if my parents ever took the extremist, puritanical stance of the above statement, I would have developed into a total nutcase. Was that statement written by the Church Lady from Saturday Night Live? “Shame on Britney for revealing her NAVEL so indiscriminately … this must be the work of …. SATAN!!!”

    If parents don’t like it, then they should actually parent their children! I’m so sick if this crap, my parents actually guided me through life and I grew up in the 90s. I watched TV and if my mom didn’t approve of a show then she wouldn’t let me watch it. I watched Britney, and I played video games, and I even read and played sports. I didn’t become a tramp because I was taught that it wasn’t acceptable behavior. If a parent wants to let a TV babysit their child then they shouldn’t complain about what’s on it. Grow some balls, turn off the TV and make your kids read a book or go outside and play.

    @Amber: You are right it is easy for some parents to blame TV instead of taking responsibility of there parenting!!!!!!!!

    to the members of Parents Television Council
    while i appreciate your input, i would also appreciate it if you’d allow me to do my job as a parent and decide for myself what is or is not appropriate for my children to watch. i prefer to teach my children responsibility, not shelter them. if they don’t see something “risque” on tv, they are going to encounter it somewhere. i’d prefer to make sure they encounter it with me present so when they encounter it when i’m not around, they can handle the situation responsibly. i’d say that you as a group are failing your children by not taking it as an opportunity to teach your children. maybe instead of spending your time obsessing over what is on tv, you should spend that time actually being a parent and teaching your children.
    seems like sarah palin spent all her time telling people sex ed should not be taught in school and while she was busy telling ME how to raise my kids, her own teenage daughter needed instruction on responsibility. that should be a lesson for you.

    I’m tired of whiny parents. I have no children, why do we all have to see every part of adult life being given to underage children? Children shouldn’t be where they don’ t belong. This is just another personal attack of jealous women on Britney Spears. She’s the only scapegoat they are allowed to beat on when there is so much worse out there not being judged or sentenced to ridiculous conservatorships.

    Females are showing all they can be is jealous, we need people who are unbias, I wouldn’t put a woman in charge of a dying dog for what behavior they’ve shown what to do with authority. I wish they would leave Britney Spears alone. Remember she had a female judge. A petty opportunity no woman will ever me adult enough to miss, or at least in this era.

    With all that’s out there on tv, the worst wasn’t on this show with just her appearance. The complaints are purely personal and I hope Spears sues.
